We had a fantastic time. Cristobal, our captain and Carlos, our guitar player were amazing. They made us feel welcome and took excellent care of us on our sunset cruise. We would definitely go again and would love to see the sunrise cruise too.

Relaxing and Entertaining

Linda_A, Sep 2025

If you want an enjoyable experience, this is the one for you! To be out on the sea with the beautiful blue waters and have the sweet music of a guitar player, is so relaxing. Our tour guide shared some information while we enjoyed tapas and wine. It was a great way to watch the sun begin to set in the horizon!

Lovely pleasant cruise,...

Melanie_L, Aug 2025

Lovely pleasant cruise, terrific captain and an overall pleasant evening. Charming guitar music additive to the experience for sure. My only wish is that the guitar player had played SPANISH music, not American easy Listening or pop tunes.

Beautiful sunset and relaxing few hours

Teo_B, Sep 2024

Beautiful experience, small group of people and plenty space to relax, mice drinks and snacks, plenty refills, we had a great time, our captain was great and the guitar playing in the background was very nice

Unsafe outing during rough seas

JenCafferty, Jul 2024

What was supposed to be a nice evening on the water turned into a potential disaster. I was well aware that we had a cloudy day and would not see the sunset. What I was not prepared for was a turbulent ride where at any time we could have been thrown off the boat. We luckily had a very experienced skipper who got us home safely, but honestly, we should have never left the harbor. By the time life jackets would have helped, we couldn’t get into the cabin to get them due to the waves and the broken glass from drinking glasses that had been tossed all over in the cabin due to the waves. Our skipper, did the best he could to keep us calm and get us home safely, which he did, but this was the most unsafe experiences I’ve ever had. The guitar player, who is a fabulous musician, fell across the back of the boat, the attendees had to hold on for life and if one of us would have fallen overboard, there was really no way to rescue anyone due to the immense seas. As a company, I worry that they send these boats at in any weather. We also had another skipper from the same company cut off our boat two times. Completely ignoring the rules of the waterways. I appreciate our skipper getting us to shore safely but have to say if there is any chance of rough seas or a potential storm, skip this tour at all costs.

Yo ho ho and a bottle of cava!

fourcookiesrwe, Jun 2024

The captain made the best out of our cruise, given there were clouds and no sun. Pablo is an amazing guitarist and was even able to play in the most difficult and choppy waters while we were almost on our side in the sail boat. Marcello was an amazing Captain, full of great sea stories and entertaining anecdotes about the area, the World Cup teams, and adventures in the area. We hit the breakwater as a bunch of first time sailors and it was exciting to cut through the white caps with all but one of the crew on the starboard side as she held steady and fast around the harbor to berth shift to another marina. Not what we thought we’d experience on a sunset cruise, but since there was no sun to set and 18knot winds, it was exhilarating!

Fun little sunset sail

Gwynne_M, Jun 2024

Great captain & great live Spanish guitar! Lively seas made for a fun ride with lots of laughs while the cava flowed. Snacks were light but nice. For a great view of the city from the water, this was an intimate way to meet a few fellow travellers & make a memory. Book it!

Loved this

Mark_B, May 2024

This was a great way to end a special trip to Barcelona. David was an awesome skipper and Pablo never stopped playing. A small group to enjoy the scene of Barcelona at sunset from the sea is a must do

Beautiful evening

Cynthia_R, Apr 2024

It was a lovely way to end my stay in Barcelona. That said, it would have been cool to have the sails up and the guitar without the added prerecorded background music. I would have loved for the captain to talk with us more and bring the group together. All in all, I’m still very glad I went on this excursion. I’m sure I’ll never forget it.

Great time!

Lenore_C, Oct 2023

Capitan Violet was an amazing and Pablo did a beautiful job providing the musical ambiance! The sangria was tasty too! We had a bit of rough seas but the Captain gave us a wonderful tour. I would definitely do this again!

Amazing sunset cruise!

Karen_B, Oct 2023

We had a wonderful evening cruising the harbor! The soothing guitar music from Pablo was perfect while enjoying our sangria and wine! Our crew/captain were very friendly. A perfect ending to our Barcelona stay! Thank you all!

Don’t hesitate

Glynn_S, Oct 2023

A beautiful way to see Barcelona. Staff is friendly, boat is clean and comfortable. Spanish guitar made it next level! My favorite part of our trip.

The perfect end of the day

Janice_D, Oct 2023

Wonderful time! Beautiful sunset and the guitar player was amazing!! The entire experience was much more than we expected!!

Must do @ Barcelona!

C_K, Sep 2023

A great start of our vacation. The sunset was spectacular. The guitarist music added an ambiance to the ride. The water was calm and serene. Cava & tapas were perfect. And the dinner was good. We met some wonderful people also. The staff was accommodating & helpful. We had a great time!

Don't pass this up!

Darrel_A, Sep 2023

This was a great experience! The captain was excellent at maneuvering the boat on the seas. The beer and wine flowed freely. Pablo played beautiful songs at a volume that never intruded but always added the appropriate ambience. Sunset was spectacular! Would love to join them again.

Great captain. Great...

David_S, Sep 2023

Great captain. Great guitar player. An overall great experience. I would recommend to anyone! A beautiful way to see the city at sunset.

Fantastic cruise!!!!

Patricia_H, May 2023

This sunset sailing cruise was wonderful. Our captain, Marcello was very personable, informative and loads of fun. Our guitarist was wonderful and the views were incredible. Marcello also took us out a little further to see the tuna jumping. Great cruise. Highly recommend.

Sunset cruise

Fahd_M, Sep 2022

My wife and I visited Barcelona for about four days. In last day we had some free time and decided to take the sunset cruise. It was a superb experience to sail on the blue sea and looking at the majestic city of Barcelona from the ocean. Plus acoustic guitar playing made a magical environment. Both my wife and I enjoyed it a lot. Highly recommend it.

Happy customers

Albina_B, Sep 2022

Thank you Mariam, for the great experience, we got so much fan at the sunset on the yacht. The guitar was amazing. Thank you million times.

Calm, relaxing few hours, greats views of Barca coastline.

sagarnpatel, Jul 2022

Guitar player is good, boat and facilities are also decent, well marked - easy to find location as per guidance provided.

Would do it again!

Carmen_B, Jun 2022

Very good captain! Very attentive to all guests. The guitar player was phenomenal. Highly recommended.

Super sunset sailing’ with Spanish guitar!

Kassia_W, May 2022

From the moment we arrived, our coordinator was fantastic. The directions were easy and the dusky atmosphere was perfect as we descended onto the marina deck. The guitar player was impressive and knew all the greatest hits! We sipped on sangria, ate queso and olives and glided on the water around the harbor. We did have an Instagram star (at least in her eyes) on board who took copious photos of herself in front of all the great views. She deemed them worthy, and they were! We highly suggest you book this intimate experience. Take a lil’ Dramamine if waves get to you and you’ll be just fine!

Serene experience

Bethany_L, Sep 2021

We ended up being the only ones on the boat that night since it was the off season. We had a wonderful time on the water after a long day of walking. Everything slowed down and we enjoyed sailing under the sunset, Jose's beautiful guitar playing, and chatting with him and Raymond over snacks and beer 🍻 A great way to see the city in a different light.

Fantastic

Olesya_H, Jul 2021

The organisation, the guitar of Pablo apropos no strumming but really professional playing and the friendliness of the sailing woman were just great! Great view of the setting sun and Barcelona - really recommendable, especially for those who love professional music accompaniment and relaxing in one. Many thanks for the two and of course the organisation!

Saghi_S, Jul 2021

It was a good experience and I enjoyed it. The music was really nice while hearing the waves. The boat was really small for 10 people.

Absolutely beautiful

Tina K, Oct 2019

It was a wonderful experience and I truly enjoyed the landscape of Barcelona from the sea. The music and the ambiance was absolutely beautiful. I wouldl definitely do again.

This was a great experience. There were 6 guests, and Captain Eduardo was wonderful. Pablo played beautifully. The snacks were great too. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Barcelona.

Perfect

Lisa_H, Sep 2019

Nora and Pablo were terrific! I highly recommend this experience! I was with my girl friend but couples would really enjoy it!

Mi experiencia que fue una tomadura de pelo lo que hicisteis con nosotros mañana llamaré a la empresa y para ver cóm

MariaTeresa_B, Oct 2021

Hola buenas tardes mañana llamaré a la empresa para hacer una reclamación ya que de todo lo que se me dijo no se me cumplió nada pague un dineral 215 € para lo que me pusieron un vaso de cerveza 4 libras 4 trozos de fuet y 4 trozos José el guitarrista majísimo el patrón regular pero bueno mañana llamaré para que me informéis cómo puedo poner una reclamación porque 215 € cuando podía haber hecho lo mismo por 60 € no sabéis desde ayer el cabreo que tengo ni os lo imagináis y yo nunca me quejo de nada he hecho miles de experiencias con otras empresas y nunca me han fallado habéis ido los primeros en fallar y lo que más mal me sabe que era el cumpleaños de mi marido

Superbe expérience

Clmence_H, Jun 2021

Superbe expérience ! Skipper au petit soin ! Pablo nous a régalé en toute discrétion pendant la durée de la sortie. Nous avons eu la chance de croiser un banc de Dauphins. La vue de Barcelone depuis le voilier... Un moment suspendu dans le temps. Je recommande !!
